Asgard bike storage

[vickster]

Considering getting a bike store for the garden and looking at the Asgard options that have come up on CC before

I currently have 3 bikes, but given N+1, the 4 bike option might be a consideration as suggested by @jefmcg

Anyone got either of these, thoughts? The difference in cost is negligible

Cheers

I can't comment on either the options linked as I have no experience of them, but if you have the room available for one then a plastic shed might be a better option; this one is similar to what I have:

Plenty of room for 5 bikes and setting up a turbo inside during winter as well as shelving for all my gear. It is on a solid concrete base and as immovable and is very water-tight and secure. Just a thought, which you may have already considered and discounted.

Cheers. I don't have room for something that size. I do have a wooden shed but I'd rather keep my bikes in something designed for the purpose. Something plastic doesn't look as secure and to be honest, it looks really quite ugly

The lift up lid on the 4 berth would be the deal clincher for me.

As a good thing?

Can you really get 4 bikes in one of them?
Looks like there would have to be at least 2 child sized ones to me.

One of the reviews says 3 is more realistic, which is fine. It says the site must be completely level which could be an issue

Yeah it just makes it more accessible IMO, added to that the extra interior room is always a bonus. I imagine that trying to get three bikes in a 3 berth shed would be a tad tight, so the extra space would be welcome.

Pedals off, bars turned?

If you've got room for the bigger one get it. Condensation may be an issue in winter though with a steel shed though.

No top to tail or bar to saddle end if you prefer

looks like they have that covered - http://www.asgardsss.co.uk/metal-sheds-and-condensation-info

I am not taking pedals off...it'll be enough hassle taking the bikes down the garden rather than just keeping in the house!

Have you considered building one from bricks and mortar?
